5 reasons why you should have a destination wedding in Fiji

November 29, 2016

Turning your little backyard wedding into a destination wedding is a good idea. But you know what's a better idea? Making that destination Fiji! Here are five stunning reasons why you should absolutely have your ceremony in the tropical paradise that is Fiji.

1. It's a perfect holiday for everyone

People don't always get terribly excited about destination weddings, especially when the destination is rather dull. But when you tell people that they'll be getting away to Fiji, you can almost guarantee that you'll have a full guest list - everyone wants to journey to this Pacific paradise! Plus, there are so many fun activities to do while they're there, so it will be a full trip for everyone.

2. You'll get stunning pictures

White sandy beaches, azure waters, and swishing palm trees - there's just endless opportunities for an incredibly romantic background for your wedding photo shoot. You can even get creative with your pictures and go underwater for some sweet snorkelling shots, or perhaps a romantic bareback trot along the beach? You have so many options!

3. Hold a beautiful bouquet

You've probably been seeing the same bouquets walking down the aisle for years now - so it's time to shake things up. When you wed in Fiji, you can select an arrangement from various assortments of exotic flowers. The flowers on this island are rich and vibrant in colour, so you really can't go wrong.

4. You can book unique entertainment

Ever notice how weddings tend to have the same entertainment? Sometimes it's a live band, sometimes it's a DJ, but it's not crazy different otherwise. Not in Fiji though! Enjoy the soft strums of a ukulele band, or go big and break out the fire dancers and your wedding will stand out far above the rest.

5. It's got a built in honeymoon

Take the stress out of selecting the honeymoon destination because it's built right in when you get married in Fiji! Find yourself a cosy bungalow away from your guests so you can have your one-on-one time once the commotion of the wedding is over and the knot is officially tied.

So there you have it - why would you get married anywhere else after reading this? Fiji is the perfect wedding destination for you and your significant other as well as all your guests!
